Mountain Lyon Cafe

Don't want to be unkind I want to give this place the benefit of a doubt but I don't get all the five-star reviews. The food is average or slightly below average. The service is pretty much non-existent. You order at the register when you walk in, take a number, and eventually they will bring what you ordered. The coffee cups are teeny and no refills are offered. Can't because they were busy because they weren't. Definitely not a classic diner feel at all. No smiles no warm greetings no friendliness and below average food.

Excellent Green Chili sauce! A little spicy and very flavorful. Big portions, friendly staff.

I love a classic diner.
Bring your glasses to read the menu off the big wall... Or scan the QR code when you enter. Order and pay at the counter and food is delivered to your table.
Service is attentive and friendly, classic diner breakfast was perfect! I would definitely go back!

Made friends with one of the wonderful folks in this community, and he happens to work here. The food is absolutely delicious, and the people who work here are fantastic. I opted for today's special, which is the steak skillet, I made the mistake of requesting catch up. It doesn't need it at all! Unfortunately I'm leaving the community, but I definitely plan on coming back, especially to eat here.

Fantastic food, service, and dining environment. They have perfected hearty American cooking. Our potatoes were crispy, chicken fried steak tender and flavorful, silver dollar cakes super fluffy and edges a little crisp. The biscuit crumbled but wasn't dry at all. Big portions that hit the spot for our hunger.

Each member of the staff was cheerful and helpful. Every other table for dining in was blocked off by cozy houseplants. We loved looking around at the eclectic decor they've collected. So glad we stopped by on our trip and look forward to returning to try more items on their menu!

New location is great. Clean. Big booths everywhere. Cool little bar/counter. The old building was kind of gross. Water tastes a little funky, but the food here is your classic ‘tastes like the diner my grandpappy took me to as a little kid’ breakfast/grill/fried diner foods. Service is kind and quick.

My new favorite place to eat breakfast and lunch. The owner and staff are always friendly. And the food is always delicious and fast to the table. Highly recommend. Don Smith

Ate here twice...The first time I ordered the traditional eggs benedict but the egg was fried over medium NOT poached. For that it looses a star.
The 2nd time i ordered a breakfast burrito smothered in green chili & it was amazing.

When originally you're walking into this place, I thought it a bit strange that we order before we sit. But really no big deal. The menu is extensive. We ordered crispy chile rellenos and breakfast tacos. The Rihanna's were awful. Very mushy and slimy. The green chili is not like any other green chilly I've ever tasted. I was unable to decide if that was a good or bad thing. But the staff was very friendly. And it was a cute little place.

Well new location but same great food. One of the top breakfast spots in the county. This place is great for paying for what you get. You will not leave here hungry. One of the best places that serves corn-beef hash. The pancakes are great also. They are definitely not light portions by no means. Service is a little slow but the food makes up for it and worth the wait.
